accomplish something unique to its own set of marketing goals and strategies.
There are a variety of advertising strategies available that will enable you to
achieve your advertising goals.
Who is your target?

decide who you’re trying to reach. There are several ways to define your target
market. Consider demographics (gender, age, education level, ethnicity,
income), lifestyle/values and don’t forget to check the competition.

Making this choice is the center and focus of your
advertising strategy. Take a closer look at Out-of-Home, Television, Radio,

target in mind as you consider your media mix.
